About Us

Better Health Network (or BHN) is a not-for-profit organisation that has been providing primary and allied health care services to the communities across south-eastern Melbourne for nearly 50 years.

We were formed by the voluntary amalgamation of Central Bayside Community Health Services (CBCHS), Connect Health & Community and Star Health in 2022.

Experience and compassion are at the core of our holistic approach to healthcare.  We celebrate our history, community and diversity, while working to be at the forefront of best-practice to support our clients’ needs.

As BHN, we proudly provide a wide range of services to support healthy living, general wellbeing and social connection. These include specialist medical services, dental and allied health, nursing and counselling services, as well as aged care social supports and disability services.
